My D isn’t home to check her portal either :woman_facepalming:t2:

Yup. Mine got into Cal Poly SLO too. Probably a more interesting Engineering program anyway. We’ll see what happens.

Thank you. He’s pretty upset.

Mine is away for the night in a place with no cell reception!

It’s no contest. If your child got into Cal Poly CENG, you’re done.

Could be topped (in his opinion) by ucla, Cornell, Stanford, or Berkeley! But yes it is a great option.

Daughter got in Medical Mircobiology.
UW: 3.96
W: 4.48

Still haven’t heard from SLO, but doesnt matter now I guess.

For those who post about CS, it may be helpful if you specify it as the CS in the College of Letters and Science versus the CSE or CompEng that are both in the College of Engineering.

D got waitlisted, she’s planning to decline it today

Major : CSE
UC capped : 4.4
UC weighted : 4.79

Congratulations to all those who are accepted. Good luck to waitlisted, you all are amazing kids.

Computer Science and Engineering is in the College of Engineering. Computer Science is in the College of Letters and Sciences. There is a curriculum overlap for CS with the CSE major. There are not 2 separate CS majors at UC Davis like at UCB.
